Bia von Fürstenfeldt was the dobermannpinscher who gave name to the Bia bed. Bengt Asklöf who in the late 60´s was working in the furniturebuisness bought the dog Bia. The only alternative for a bed at that time was a steel constructed bed that was not comfortable. Bengt saw that Bia wanted to lie hight up with her head and that the steel pipes where uncomfortable for her, so he created a brand new model.
The rumour sperad quickly about Bia von Fürstenfeldts good night sleep and the demand grew. Bengt Asklöf started an industrial manufacturing of the bed in 1969 and the company still runs in the family.
